What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Keith Gandy]

Put your hand in by the exhaust with race gas vs 87 ,i bet the race gas is cooler from the unburnt fuel exiting.

Why put it in the first place if u cant use it?

 

[junkman]

More heat usually means more power in the combustion process??

Raw fuel is unburt wasted fuel not making power

I've used several gallons of 110 with no issues....that I know of.

I always try different stuff just to see what they do 87 and that sabre impressed me a lot,i will ne taking down a nunch of trees this weekend so i will test it some more and look inside with the camera

It is to a point. Then the extra fuel is cooling the cylinder down.

Exhaust smoke helps with mosquitoes down here in the Louisiana hardwood bottoms.

Ya I used in a the Mercury Drag motors and we had 0 issues. Its good oil imo but at the time I used it in my saw I was hung up on trying to keep a clean piston

Any favorite 2-cycle oil so far milling or firewood cutting?

I think a lot of the dirtbike oils are overkill for our saws ,they will last forever ,but we are leaving some power on the table i think as a compromise

yep and washing the cylinder walls down i have worked on plenty of kubota diesels at work were people have messed with the injector pumps.
and sooner or later rings and new sleeves have to be installed because of the extra fuel washing away the oil film on the cylinder walls.

I like forever. That'll save Keith from replacing parts on my saws.
